Progress Report

There will be a panel down the front and down the back

I have worked out the numbers (neckband at least)  for the next Pullover.  It will be in DK Weight Yarn.  This sample is worked in Cabin Fever Cotton Tweed DK.  The colour is Denim, after all I am a Denim Kook.   

Starting Another Pattern

It will be worked in Panels down the front and down the back, then the rest of the body and the sleeves will be worked sideways.  Hopefully it will work like my other pattern, Baby J.  Please  keep in touch, I am making a big effort to get them done more quickly.   First of all, it will be a Pullover not a cardigan and it will be in multiple sizes, likely from 1-10 years.   I really have become addicted to working the Neckband with a Provisional Cast On.

Got Another Pattern on Patternfish

This one is Sammi:

It is a Multidirectional, No Sew Pattern.  MommaBearKnits and Designs for Babies and More.

I posted the Magic Number Baby Booties Pattern to Patternfish

Yes I did it finally:

Magic Number Baby Booties in three Weights of Yarn, Worsted, DK & Fingering

Magic Number Baby Booties!!!!

I have worked several pair of Baby Booties using the magic numbers.  Now I have decided to Publish a Pattern and put it up on Patternfish.  I find the booties addictive and they are a great way to use up small amounts of leftover yarn.

They can be worked in three weights of yarn: Worsted, DK, and Fingering.  The size varies slightly depending on the brand of yarn but they all will fit Babies up to 6 Months.

I am Slow but still Designing!!!!!

I have finally finished the written pattern and three samples.  This one is in 100% wool, and I have since changed the body pattern to accommodate all the sizes.  The last time I posted a picture of this one, it turned out looking really grey, I guess it was a dull day.

Size 2, the pattern is size 2 - 12 (6 sizes)

Now I have finished a size 2 and a size 4 for samples.

Next, I have to double double double check the pattern for errors, then ask another knitter to check for errors, take pictures, work out a scematic and then publish the pattern.

I realize that the neckline looks tight, but it is not, it is worked with a provisional cast on and then both ends are knit together, that makes for a very very stretchy neckband when the child is being dressed and it fits well when being worn.

MommaBearKnits on into the night, she even knits dishcloths when she wants a break from pattern writing.

PULLOVER IS COMPLETED

Yes the pullover is complete, at least the first sample.  Now I have to check the numbers.  I will likely do one more sample for the pattern pictures as this one is in 100% wool, not a good choice for toddlers that may be allergic to wool and for  mom's care in washing.

Size 2 Years

Now I just have to finish writing the Pattern and get Callum to be my model.
